hey everyone, started a new job so haven't been as active, but wanted to post something to let you know we are open for business this offseason. I hope everyone is doing well, congrats to Pitt and Chicago on their successes.
not sure we have a plan, or how to articulate any particular direction we are going in, but am interested in trading, so if you see anything in our majors or minors that you like send a PM or better yet email (abirgur@gmail.com).
well, here are some guys we'd be willing to move (from highest-to-lowest salary): SP Ned Garver CF Richie Asburn--down from 20M/yr to a much more budget-friendly $8.78M/yr! C Smoky Burgess--6x all-star behind the dish, 2nd-most win shares of any catcher in league history (thanks Cato!), defense helps win games, reasonable contract... CL John Anderson--too good for our bullpen 3b Willie Jones--missed last year with injury, didn't take any PDs... before missing last year, had more career win shares of any 3b in league hx, and also highest single-season total of win shares among 3b. Like Burgess, elite D. MR Don Lee--too good for our bullpen OF Tim Wright--still wrong for our team ATM, LHB, can play all 3 OF spots pretty well
that's all. wasn't as hard as i thought. could move prospects too: OF Perez, UTIL Aspromonte, SP Ritchie, SP Kunkel, CL Qualters, etc. etc.
aaaaaand fight!

yep, long overdue and well-deserved. tho, you better hope i start jobs more often, and alon keeps playing FIFA. i made several management gaffes, we really shat the bed down the stretch.
Adding a few more names to block: 1b Earl Torgenson--great short-term (1yr x 3M) option if you need a 1b who can lead-off or bat #2. 1b Bob L. Bowman--shat the bed all year after showing promise in 1959. Change-o-scene candidate
SP Dallas Green--25 yo G/A/G/B/G SP. 300k. he progressed pretty nicely, reflected in peripherals but not ERA. rumor has it he asked for a trade to a mark that better matches his skillset. SP Ron Piche--G/A/A/B/A. Ditto re rumor has it
aaaand scene
